Forehead Lifting: Improving Discomfort Caused by a Sagging Forehead

A real forehead lift case at DM Plastic Surgery

Even without making any particular expression, are you worried about deep forehead wrinkles, a drooping forehead that covers the eyes, an unnatural eye shape, and narrowed vision?

If so, today we’ll take a look at the “endoscopic forehead lift,” which improves forehead wrinkles and a sagging eye line by making an incision in the scalp without using Endotine, leaving the periosteum intact and dissecting the muscle layer to lift the forehead and eyebrows. ❤

Is this only for middle-aged and older adults?

Endoscopic forehead lifting can improve not only middle-aged and older adults whose skin laxity has progressed, but also younger people whose skin is aging relatively quickly. It can soften wrinkles between the eyebrows and on the forehead, creating a smoother and more lively appearance!

It is also recommended for those who want to prevent wrinkles in advance. Since skin type, the amount of fat, and the degree of sagging differ from person to person, you should find a clinic where you can establish a customized plan through sufficient consultation with a specialist who has extensive experience with a variety of cases. This helps achieve highly satisfying results 😁

DM Endoscopic Forehead Lift Without Using Endotine

At DM Plastic Surgery, the procedure is performed without using a fixation device called Endotine, by dissecting and securing the muscle layer.

※ Please be careful, as side effects may occur when using Endotine!

If the periosteum is affected, some patients may experience pain, so an incision is made in the scalp, leaving the periosteum intact while dissecting the muscle layer and fixing it to the posterior muscle layer!

What is endoscopic forehead lifting?!

When the forehead sags, the eyebrows also droop. When the eyebrows droop, the eyes appear smaller and the field of vision becomes narrower ㅠㅠ In that case, the frontalis muscle is used to lift the forehead in order to open the eyes, which can make forehead wrinkles even more pronounced 😥 This is a procedure that can improve a sagging forehead, eyebrows, and eye line step by step without changing your overall impression.

The first improvements may have started with treatments such as fillers or Botox, but while these methods offer quick recovery and fast results, they can affect muscle movement or facial expressions. Because of this limitation, more people are now looking to identify the underlying cause and improve it through forehead lifting surgery!

By lifting the forehead and eyebrows, this procedure improves forehead wrinkles and the appearance of the eyes that were covered by sagging tissue, while also improving wrinkles around the eyes. Shall we take a look at the incision method and surgical technique for this two-in-one lifting procedure?

Endoscopic forehead lifting involves incisions, so a small scar may remain. However, the incision is made inside the hairline so that it is not visible once new hair grows after recovery. At DM Plastic Surgery, the incision location is discussed thoroughly in advance, helping reduce concerns about scarring. We strive to choose the method best suited to each individual’s skin, degree of sagging, and other characteristics so that you can achieve even more satisfying results.

✅ TYPE1

A three-point minimal incision of 1–2 cm

Results in less scarring, swelling, and pain, but the lifting effect and range may be smaller.

✅ TYPE2

Because the treatment range is wider, the effective range is also wider, but recovery may be slower depending on the characteristics.

Because the procedure must be performed after carefully checking even the deeper tissues, the skill of a specialist with many years of experience is extremely important. At DM Plastic Surgery, medical professionals with more than 20 years of know-how directly establish a customized plan for each patient and perform the surgery themselves, securing the area firmly to the periosteum so as not to affect the skull.

The patient decided on a forehead lift to improve sleepy-looking eyes and the short distance between the eyes, and the procedure was performed with a customized lifting plan that considered the patient’s skin condition.

As the forehead and eye line are lifted at the same time, the sagging eyelid area is improved, and you can see through the photos that both the overall impression and the eye shape have changed to look fresher and clearer.
